Exactly.  I hope to see three kinds of tutorials and books: one set 
about using the component architecture, one set about using the 
application server, and one set about the CMS.  I believe all three 
layers are already complex enough to write a whole book about each one, 
and the methods of using each layer already seem quite different.  Thus 
choosing names for the layers, and choosing what software goes in what 
layer, would be quite beneficial for documentation authors.
